03-17-2015 Run

Solo run in the morning when it was still dark out.  I tried wearing my headlamp to let me see where I was running a little better, and it was mixed results.  It did illuminate the sidewalk but I had trouble keeping it on the same position on my head and on its swivel.  Worked well enough, although I still slowed down on the downhill sections to avoid tripping.  I didn't realize it, but it had been about a month since I've run this route.  Seemed like it felt a little easier on some of the uphill sections, although that wasn't the case on the uphill climb on W Bernardo Dr.  That one was a chore.  There is a challenge at work to see how fast you can run a single mile, and I'm wondering what it will take to break the 7 min barrier.  It might be doable on a flat course.

Total mileage = 3.5 mi
Total time = 27:32
Total elevation gain = 260'
Calories burned = 480'
